Amino acid derivatives containing chrysin were synthesized for evaluating their anticancer effects. Among them, compound -(7-((5-hydroxy-4-oxo-2-phenyl-4H-chromen-7-yl)oxy)heptanoyl)-L-isoleucine () displayed the most potent antiproliferative activity against MGC-803 cells with IC value of 20.0 μM. Preliminary mechanistic studies showed that compound could inhibit the colony formation and migration of MGC-803 cells. Flow cytometry analysis demonstrated that compound mediated cell apoptosis of MGC-803 cells and arrested cell cycle in G2/M-phase. Moreover, treatment in MGC-803 cells downregulated anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and upregulated pro-apoptotic gene Bax in a concentration-dependent manner. Our studies suggest that compound may sever as an effective chemotherapeutic candidate. [Formula: see text].

Spiders are natural predators of agricultural pests, primarily due to the potent venom in their venom glands. Spider venom is compositionally complex and holds research value. This study analyzes the diversity of symbiotic bacteria in spider venom glands and venom, as well as the biological activity of culturable symbiotic bacteria.

In this study, a homogeneous polysaccharide, named YDOP-1 was isolated form Dendrobium officinale using hot water extraction and ethanol precipitation method. YDOP-1 was characterized to be a typical O-acetyl-glucomannan with the molecular wight was 13,456 Da. Cell viability and colony forming assay showed that YDOP-1 possess moderate anti-gastric cancer effects.

Background: Although there have been significant advancements in the treatment modalities for gastric cancer (GC) in recent years, the overall prognosis remains poor, particularly for individuals in advanced stages. The absence of a sensitive tumor marker in GC is a crucial factor contributing to this challenge.
Methods: Our study focused on investigating a newly discovered long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) known as TCONS_00251376, which has been confirmed to exhibit differential expression in GC compared to adjacent tissues.

Objective: To investigate the role of sphingosine kinase-1 (SPHK1) in regulating migration and invasion of gastric cancer (GC) cells.
Methods: TIMER2.0, GEPIA and HPA databases were used to investigate SPHK1 expression in GC, and its association with prognosis of the patients was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier Plotter database.

Objective: To investigate the correlation of CEP192 expression with prognosis of gastric cancer and biological behaviors of gastric cancer cells.
Methods: Public databases and clinical tissue samples were used to examine CEP192 expression level in gastric cancer. Kaplan-Meier survival curves, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, ROC curves and bioinformatics analyses were used to explore the risk factors affecting the 5-year postoperative survival, the correlation of CEP192 expression level with the patients' survival, and its biological role in gastric cancer development.
